Horoscope
Today’s birthday (Thursday, Nov. 16, 2017) This year you are beginning a new life and luck cycle. Traditionally, the first year is one of the luckiest. You will make many new friends, and your inner circle will expand. If you are single, and you decide that you want to get involved with someone, it will be so. Take your time choosing a potential suitor. If you are attached, a tendency to go overboard while enjoying life could create some tension between you and your sweetie. A little self-discipline will go a long way in helping your relationship. A fellow Scorpio connects with you deeply.
Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★★ Deal with joint finances. Others seem to acknowledge your know-how and general wisdom. Getting a “yes” response is much easier right now. Acting with the support of friends and loved ones makes you feel secure in your choices. Tonight: Let the other party choose!
Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★ Knowing when to defer to others has become an art for you. You understand that allowing someone else to act as he or she wants to will bring positive results. As you give others a nod, they feel empowered. Watch what happens. Tonight: Go along with a friend’s suggestion.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ Know what you must do as opposed to what you would like to do. A fun call or invitation could be quite distracting.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★★★ Once more, your imagination proves to be an unusual source of resilience and adaptability. Though you are unlikely to encounter any obstacles, you still will be pondering how to make a dream a reality. Don’t allow anyone to interfere. Tonight: Go with the flow.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★ You could be more concerned about a personal problem than you are letting on. However, those who know you might be seeing some cracks in your facade. As a result, they might start to express concern. What you choose to share is up to you. Tonight: Make your weekend plans.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★★ You’ll enjoy the company of a contemporary. This person’s spontaneous style might be contagious. Your critical ways could start falling to the wayside. People will appreciate this change in you, and you’ll want to be more upbeat moving forward. Tonight: Say “yes.”
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ As opportunities present themselves, regardless of whether they involve finances and/or romance, you won’t be able to say “no.” Enjoy a little fun and overindulgence.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ The Moon in your sign puts you in the spotlight through Saturday. Your magnetism and charisma start to peak. Note how compliant those around you are becoming. If you have a problem that needs to be handled, the time is now. Take a risk. Tonight: Be with the one you love.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★ You might have a secret or some kind of exciting possibility that is brewing. Until this situation manifests, you should remain quiet about it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★★ You smile as your day ends, and you might think that more days should fall into place like parts of today did.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ Pressure seems to build to the extent that the issue at hand becomes your main focus. Recognize that what is happening seems to be for the better.
